Awhile back I wrote, and never got a response, that "featureCollection"
appeared to now be the preferred method to do aggregations, but the docs were
really unclear as to how to do this for simple aggregations, or even if for the
present version of TDS it is the preferred method.
What would really help is if it could be a clear statement as to whether
featureCollection is the preferred method, if the what has been the usual
method through "datascan" and the like will be deprecated in the future, and
clear documentation on not only setting up aggregations using
featureCollection, but good (ie realistic, not trivial) examples of converting
existing aggregations to featureCollection.
Thanks
-Roy
